inquiry.conf - SCSI inquiry strings for Oracle HSM device types
∕etc∕opt∕SUNWsamfs∕inquiry.conf
SUNWsamfs
The inquiry configuration file, inquiry.conf,
maps a SCSI device to an Oracle HSM device type.
The inquiry.conf
file contains the vendor identification and product identification
reported by a SCSI device in response to an inquiry command.
Entries in the file are made up of three quoted fields separated by a comma and∕or white space and optionally followed by a comment. These entries have the following format:
"vendor_id", "product_id", "Oracle HSM_name" #comment
The vendor_id and product_id are the vendor identification (8 characters) and product identification (16 characters) as reported in the inquiry data. The Oracle HSM_name is the Oracle HSM device name as described subsequently on this man page.
Trailing spaces do not need to be supplied in
the vendor_id or the product_id fields.
Any occurrence of a quotation mark ("), a comma (,), or a
back slash (\fB\\) in any _id field
should be prefaced with the escape character, which is a back
slash (\fB\\).
Blank lines and lines beginning with a pound character (#)
are ignored.
The following device names are supported within the Oracle HSM environment:

The existence of a device in the previous example file does not imply that the device is supported by Oracle HSM.
Whenever a new version of Oracle HSM
is installed, the existing inquiry.conf
file is copied to inquiry.conf.MMDDYY for reference
and back-up purposes.
During device identification,
the vendor_id and product_id values
are only compared through the length of the string supplied in
the inquiry.conf file.
To insure an exact match, the entries should be ordered with
longer names first.
This interface is supplied to circumvent problems that occur when hardware vendors change the vendor_id and product_id values returned. For example, some hardware vendors return a different value for a product_id if the hardware is supplied by an OEM.
Oracle does not support mapping untested hardware to an Oracle HSM name.
